Golden Fleece

Ph.D. Scholarship for Wool Textile Studies in New Zealand
Applications are invited for this Post Graduate award from people intending to pursue a career in the wool/textile industry. The priority is on research being undertaken in areas post farm-gate. This award is available on an annual basis for 3 years and a stipend of $25,000 plus tuition fees. A research grant as well as a travel grant to attend an international conference are also provided.
The New Zealand wool industry is at the cutting edge of wool textile research, and offering these scholarships is intended to assist the industry to remain a global leader in the future. A focus of the scholarship is to support research at the AgResearch Ltd, Lincoln Research Centre, but consideration will be given to applications for study at other appropriate New Zealand organisations including universities.
The closing date for applications is 30 November 2007. Descriptions of the scholarships and application forms are available on Meat & Wool New Zealand’s website – www.meatandwoolnz.com/main.cfm?id=234
